make-paper-tarball – Make a submission-ready tarball of an academic paper manuscript
make-paper-tarball is a script that prepares an academic paper manuscript for submission. It performs the following tasks:
- Check that the manuscript can be compiled.
- Identify source files (e.g. figures, bibliography) and copy them to a temporary directory.
- Rename graphic files after the number of the figure/table that includes them, e.g. figure-1.png.
- Check that figures and tables are cited in order.
- Insert LaTeX files included by \input directly into the main LaTeX file.
- Insert code listings included by \lstinputlisting directly into the main LaTeX file.
- Insert BibTeX-generated bibliography directly into the main LaTeX file.
- Strip out comments.
- Copy auxiliary files to the tarball.
- Create an archive containing only the the main LaTeX file, required source files, and specified auxiliary files.
